SERVICE ACTIVATION USING ALGORITHMICALLY DEFINED KEY - Systems and methods for service activation using algorithmically defined keys are disclosed. A consumer who has a relationship with a first party may wish to enroll in a service provided by a third party. The first party can maintain control of such enrollments through the use of algorithmically defined keys. The algorithmically defined keys also allow the third party service provider to verify data provided by the consumer as matching data stored by the first party. The verification provides for data synchronization without requiring the third party to have access to the first parties data systems.

MOBILE DEVICE INCLUDING AUTO INITIATION - Systems and methods for redeeming coupons are provided. The method includes receiving a coupon at a mobile payment device, determining whether a mobile payment application is active. If the mobile payment application is not active, the mobile payment device may automatically initiate the mobile payment application and conduct the transaction using the received coupon. The method further includes enrolling the mobile payment device in a coupon redemption program prior to using the coupon. The method also includes tracking a consumer's transaction information and sending one or more coupons based on the transaction information. The mobile payment device used for conducting the transaction includes a contactless element that can use the near field communications technology to conduct payment transactions.

INTELLIGENT AUTHENTICATION - Systems and methods for intelligently authenticating payment transactions are disclosed. A user initiates a payment transaction to purchases goods or services from a merchant. The merchant sends a payment initiation request to a server computer in communication with a payment processing network and an issuer. The server computer queries various databases to determine one or more available communication channels that may be used as authentication channels by the issuer. The server computer also determines one or more communication channels, available for use by a mobile device of the user, that may be used as authentication channels to authenticate the payment transaction. The user is provided with a list of available/eligible authentication channels. User selects one of the authentication channels and the issuer is notified of the selection. The issuer uses the selected authentication channel to communicate with the user and authenticate the payment transaction.

Token Based Transaction Authentication - A token based transaction authentication system is disclosed. Issuer, merchants, and a payment processing network generate unique tokens or keys to authenticate messages between themselves and to authenticate a sending entity or consumer as they are redirected between entities. The tokens are also used to identify the particular authentication thread a message or sending entity is associated with. The sending entity authentication occurs over a web-based channel or a mobile based channel.

Remote Variable Authentication Processing - A remote variable authentication processing system is disclosed. A sending entity initiates a remote payment using an alias over an initiation channel. The alias may be associated with one or more nicknames that identify portable consumer devices and metadata. The metadata describes which channels are available for authentication. The sending entity selects a nickname and an associated authentication channel. The sending entity authenticates with an issuer over the selected authentication channel.

DISTRIBUTED GENERATION OF A COUPON - A distributed generation of coupons system and method is described. One example develops a campaign having a set of rules at a campaign management system. in addition, a communication channel is established between the campaign management system and a coupon generating subsystem. The campaign having a set of rules is provided from the campaign management system to the coupon generating subsystem via the communication channel. The coupon generating subsystem is authorized to independently generate a coupon based on the set of rules of the campaign without requiring communication between the coupon generating subsystem and the campaign management system.
